Gradient Blue 3-Quart Enameled Cast Iron Dutch Oven Pot with Lid

Made of thick, heavy-duty cast iron with a glossy enamel finish and a white, non-stick enamel interior, this 8.8-pound cooking pot offers excellent heat retention, allowing you to fry, sauté, sear, slow cook, stew, braise, boil, deep fry, roast, broil, and bake with ease. The heat-retaining properties ensure that food stays warm even when the pot is removed from the heat source, so there's no need to worry about dishes getting cold before your family and friends arrive.

Although the pot is dishwasher-safe, hand washing with warm, soapy water and a soft sponge or cloth is recommended for best results. Avoid using stainless-steel wire balls or other metal tools that may leave scratches, and opt for wooden, silicone, or nylon utensils instead. After cleaning, be sure to dry the pot thoroughly, and when it's still warm, lightly oil the inside with cooking oil.

The enamel coating on this cast-iron Dutch oven not only provides a smooth, non-stick surface for easy cleaning, but it also has a fascinating history. Once more precious than gold, enamel was used to fire exclusive royal porcelain before the French invented the enameled cast-iron pot in the 20th century, making it more widely available.

The self-basting lid, featuring 32 evenly distributed dots, accelerates the condensation of evaporated water vapor and ensures that it drips back down onto the food, resulting in juicy, succulent dishes. The smooth porcelain enamel coating also makes the pot PFOA, PFOS, lead, and cadmium-free, even at high temperatures, making it a healthy choice for cooking.

This versatile Dutch oven can be used on a variety of cooktops, including gas, electric, ceramic, and induction, and is oven-safe up to 500°F, allowing you to seamlessly transition from stovetop to oven to table. Its 3-quart capacity is perfect for serving 2-3 people, and the beautiful lake blue exterior with a cream-colored interior adds a touch of elegance to your kitchen, making it a stylish piece of art on your stove.

Whether you're preparing a hearty pot roast, a comforting chili, delectable pasta, or homemade bread, this cast-iron Dutch oven is the perfect tool for the job, delivering even heat distribution and superior heat retention for delicious and nutritious results every time.
